I remember today a year ago. I couldn’t wait to get out of that place. I had been counting the years, the months, and finally it came down to a matter of days. It seemed like an eternity, and then I remembered it all just swept past me. The days seemed to turn into seconds. And then it ended and has ended for almost a year now. I can hardly remember walking across that fake grass or even shaking anybody’s hand. I just remember the smile on my face & the joy in my heart. I wish I could remember that day more clearly, but I don’t. I just remember the days before and after. How funny how my high school graduation just seemed to pass me by. Now that I see all these posts on twitter, Facebook, and tumblr about how people can’t wait to graduate, it reminds me of that same feeling I had last year. And to think that a year has gone by faster than any other.
